Title: None.

Description: Vintage real photo postcard of a harness racing display at a fair held in (probably) Riverside County, Southern California. Shown is a model of a horse, sulky and rider, a fruit-encrusted little building and some of the rest of the fair and the bamboo poles presumably supporting its roof. Unfortunately, the photo is a bit out of focus. This is one of a group of six postcards being listed showing photos from the same fair. All of them feature fruit prominately, and most likely it's all citrus fruit. (Bamboo as a building material is also prominant.) While all the cards are untitled, names in the photos (Riverside County, Hemet, Corona, San Bernardino) place the fair to the west of Riverside County, with perhaps Corona, the "Lemon Capital of the World", being the most likely location. The AZO stamp box dates the cards to between 1918 and 1930.

Era: 1920s.
